Kartika - The holiest month

Sri Yashoda Damodara
In all auspicious month Kartika is the month Lord Krishna love so much. In this month Lord Krishna please very quick from Their devotees. In this year it begins from Saturday 31 Oct 2020, and end Monday 30 Nov 2020. This month is also known as Damodara month because Lord Krishna played a nice pastimes.

There are few things we must do to get benefit of this holy month because Krishna will be pleased very easily in this month:

1. Daily offer ghee lamp (deep) to Damodara and Tulsi

2. Daily recite Damodar ashtkam while offering lamp

3. Chant maha mantra as much as possible (Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare, Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare)

4. Read Damodar pastimes from Krishna book, where Lord Krishna saved Nalkubera and Manigriva (sons of kuvera) from cursed of Narada muni as they became arjuna trees

5. Try not to offense anyone

6. Try to visit Vrindavan dham if possible (due to covid-19), if it is not then do virtual yatra (meditate from your mind)

7. Do Govardhan parikrama and Vrindavan parikrama

There are so many places to see in Vrindavan dham as we start our parikrama first from Kusum sarovar (a beautiful lake), we goes to gupt Ganges, Punchhari then reach at Udhava kund, Sri Radha kund and Shyam Kund (most auspicious to take bath in this month).

There are so many temples but 7 temples mainly build by our Six Gowswamis that is Sri Radha Madan Mohan, Radha Gopinath, Radha Govind, Radha Damodara (where srila prabhupada used to stay and translate Srimad Bhawatam), Radha Shyam Sundara, Radha Raman and Radha Gokulananda.

There is a beautiful place where you can take peaceful breath that is Sri Vrinda kunda (the main in-charge of Sridham Vrindavan). Without her sanction we can not enter into Vraj dhama.

There is a very famous place, people go to see the amazing thing over there that is Nidhi vana. Where Radha rani and Krishna even come every day.

There is varsana dham (a place of Radharani), a beautiful and auspicious place to seek devotional service from Radharani. Only Radha rani can give us the Krishna prema (love of Krishna).

Anyone who is interested to have virtual lamp offering at home in this auspicious month can contact us.

Damodara month ki jai.

Laxmana - The Hidden Hero of Ramayana

In our previous post we have already mentioned Ramayna is not an ordinary story but a complete learning lesson from each & every characters. Laxmana is one of the character of Ramayana, who was completely hide himself to glorify from others, and away from honor and dishonor. Laxmana teaches us how to maintain character, competency, selfless service, and equal in both the situation either you are praised or you are abused. If you have fixed your aim, then there is no question of disturbance what people say to you. But when we get into the deep of Ramayana and see the value of Laxmana, We see he was the hero after Lord Rama in the whole story. Laxmana represents  who carry out Laxmi with him and serve Lord Rama by his good will. Laxmana always eager to serve Lord Rama, when Lord Rama was about to go for exile for fourteen years Laxmana immediately stood up & ready to go along with Lord Rama although he was not asked to go to exile. Laxmana took vow, he will not sleep for four...

Learning Lessons from Mother Sumitra

In this world mother and child relationship is above all the relations. The foremost responsibility of a mother is to place her child in a proper Krishna Consciousness environment by which he/she becomes pure devotee of the Lord. Often mothers blame for their children, they are not behaving well and they don't respect them at all but the reason behind this is how much we are doing for them. Being a parent means to sacrifice for children. In modern age mother has no time to care of her children and think they can give all kinds of facilities by just giving money. And when the child grows up and by the time he/she do not get the association of mother and teachings they become free to do what they want to do. Mother means to care for her children what they need and give love and teach them how to love and respect others.

TIT for TAT OR Tolerate That

Many of the times we go through situations where we get confused what to do now? According to our Vedic Scriptures we should keep three things in our mind and accordingly react or respond on situations. If you can change it: Situations comes in your life or brought by some people and you know if it is completely against our religious principle, then you must stand against it and try to change the situations. When Hauman Ji reached in Lanka and Lankini the guard of Lanka tried to stop Him and because it was against the religious principle as his own master kidnapped others wife, Hanuman Ji punched on her mouth by His left hand and move on. Same way if you have power and know things are going against Dharma, you should change the situations else you have to suffer sinful reactions of it. If you can not change it: Sometimes situations are completely against us and we are not even able to change it then that time we must accept the situation and try to tolerate it.  You don't believe...
